Unhappy Devastating News; Feel Terrible.

I just got off the phone with Zach. He got a call today; his father died. They had been estranged for nearly 20 years. Zach never really got to know his father. His mother died when he was 15 and he moved away and lost touch with his dad. He always wondered if his father loved him. He'd been talking about finding him but was afraid his dad didn't want him. Come to find out his dad had been thinking about looking for him also....but was too ashamed. What a tradgedy. I feel aweful.

I'm so sorry Kim. How heartbreaking for Zach this must be. I agree life is way too short and unfair. But one day Zach will be reunited with his father again and then they will have a life time to catch up. You both are in my thoughts and prayers.
